  • Even if I wanted to be frozen, there is no point. One would have no guarantees that you wouldn’t just be thawed and disposed later so the company can sell more stasis slots. Or if they decide to even try to keep their word, they could maintain your stasis so badly that you would die from that or maybe thaw partially occasionally or something. Unless you are billionaire and could afford somekind of insurance that makes sure nothing happens to you, there would be absolutely nothing protecting you.

    And even if everything went according to plan, society could collapse in such way maintaining the stasis could become impossible due to lack of resources.



  • Its understandable though. Even though its also understandable the company would want to know where the trucks are, its also telling the drivers that they dont really trust them to do their job without surveillance. It should be enough that the freight gets delivered within agreed time and not too much fuel is used up in the process.

    Personally i would compare the gps to office having sensors that record constantly which room you are occupying. With the ai its like having a camera constantly monitor exactly what are you doing at every given moment. And if you do anything company doesn’t like you will be punished. Not only is it insulting, its exhausting having to ceaselessly consider is everything you are doing acceptable to whatever sensible or insensible rules the corporate executives have decided.

    People who want to be truckers most likely are kind of people who like working by themselves and not having to answer for every single thing they do at every moment and now even that is being taken away from them.














  • I have been thinking about this too. I cant say i know much but what keeps coming to my head about this is you need to have at least one friend/acquittance who thinks the same way and willing to start that group with you. If there are 2 of you its already a group and its much easier to do things and think about what to do next.

    Protests should be considered mostly as a way of finding likeminded people instead of thinking they might change something. They might, but probably not. Still its worth it do them even if they dont seem to affect much. They show others there are people who care too.

    To make such group mean something you really need to think what you ultimately want to achieve and how you should do it. Just demonstrating to other people that there are those willing to take action should do something. Just be smart about what you do and consider how your actions might affect the response so you are always prepared for consequences which will inevitably come if you manage to do do anything meaningful. So have a plan on how to stay safe and hidden and what to do if that fails so your group cant be easily crushed. Nowdays staying hidden is in another world compared to the historic movements, with how surveillance has advanced. So definitely try to get people aboard who know a lot about computers if you can.

    Though there is always the route of trying to do stuff that doesnt cause hostile reaction from the authorities. Less danger but that is also playing by their rules and will have less impact unless you know what you are doing. Though no matter what approach one chooses, i think thinking outside the box is the key about finding what to do that works.

    At least this is what comes to my mind about this, I cant say I have any experience about it though. Hopefully someone else knows better. I have been thinking about this too occasionally.
